Chapter 113 He Loves You
Anaya turned around and saw Lexie and Bria standing behind them, arm in arm.
Naturally, the two of them had also seen Anaya and Aracely. But one pretended not to see them, while the other tried to buy what they wanted to buy to provoke them.
“Anaya, you also came to buy jewelry?” Lexie seemed to have just seen Anaya.
“How much is this necklace?” Anaya ignored her and asked the shop assistants.
“This is the latest work by Herl, an Italian designer. The price is 200 thousand dollars.”
200 thousand dollars. It was a bit too expensive for Anaya.
She only planned to make Aracely lose thousands of dollars.
Before Anaya could reply, Bria interrupted, “It’s quite cheap. I’ll take it. Wrap it up for me.”
The shop assistant thought for a while and asked hesitantly, “Ms. Dutt, don’t you also want this necklace?”
Anaya did not want it a moment ago.
But now she changed her mind.
“Yes.”
Seeing that the assistant asked Anaya first, Bria was very dissatisfied, and she flared up. “Why did you ask her first? What do you mean? You think I can’t afford this necklace?”
The Aucher family was dependent on the Maltz family and was not a great family in Boston.
Bria’s father didn’t take good care of the company, and the business had been going down in the past two years. As a consequence, Bria felt inferior to other rich girls.
She didn’t have much money, but she loved to compare herself with others. Over time, she became sensitive,
self-conscious, and arrogant.
At that moment, the shop assistant’s question immediately alerted Bria. Bria suspected this shop assistant knew the Aucher family’s situation and was trying to humiliate her.
However, the shop assistant didn’t know Bria at all, let alone her family situation. The shop assistant politely and respectfully said, “Miss, you misunderstood. It’s just that Ms. Dutt is our VIP customer. And we have a rule that when two customers want the same thing, we need to prioritize VIP customers…”
Bria sneered. “Anaya is a VIP customer here? But her family is fucked up. It seems that anyone can be a VIP customer
here.”
The shop assistant looked a bit sullen after hearing Bria’s words. But she soon concealed her emotion.
Bria was a customer, so she could not afford to offend Bria.
Aracely, however, could say anything she liked. She said defiantly, “Bria, why don’t you spend some money here and become a VIP customer?”
“Why? You think I don’t have the money to become a VIP customer?” Bria scoffed and looked toward the shop assistant. “How much should I spend to become a VIP customer?”
“According to the rules, it’s 500 thousand dollars. Ms. Dutt started to buy things in our shop a few years ago. She has spent about 1.2 million dollars here in total.”
In other words, Bria needed to spend more than 1.2 million dollars to become a more important person than Anaya to get this necklace
Bria fell silent.
Today, Joshua gave them 500 thousand dollars to buy jewelry for Lexie to wear at the wedding.
Even if Bria took out the money on her, they didn’t have 1.2 million dollars.
Aracely smiled and said, “Bria, why are you silent? I thought everything was cheap for you.”
Bria glared at Aracely fiercely. “I, I didn’t bring enough money with me today! I’ll come back another day!”
Aracely gave her a meaningful “oh”. Bria felt as if she had been slapped and her face was burning.
Bria tried to settle the score. She said with feigned calmness. “Forget it, Lexie and I are not here for this necklace. We
are here to buy jewelry for Lexi to wear at the wedding!
“Joshua gave us more than 500 thousand dollars for it. Later, we’ll spend more on wedding rings and wedding dresses!”
Anaya siniled elegantly yet sexily, “It’s all for Lexie. What are you so smug about, Ms. Aucher? Did you get anything in return for sucking up to Lexie so hard?”
Bria was hard hit.
Lexie smiled gently and gave Bria a tug. “Forget it. It’s just a necklace. No need to be angry over such little things. We can buy something else.”
“Ms. Dunbar surely knows when to speak.” Anaya looked at Lexie with a half-smile. “You’ve been silent during the quarrel. You wanted Bria to say those things and enjoyed watching Bria kiss your ass?”
Instantly, the fake smile on Lexie’s face froze, but Lexie quickly regained her composure. “Anaya, what are you talking about? I just couldn’t find a chance to cut in…”
Anaya laughed and did not reply to that.
But everyone present understood what her laugh meant.
The shop assistant spoke up, “Ms. Dutt, shall I pack the necklace for you?”
“Please. But without the gift box.”
“No problem.”
Aracely was about to go to pay with her bank card when Anaya stopped her. “I’ll pay for myself.”
Recently, Riven Group had made a lot of money, and Anaya was richer. She could afford a necklace.
Aracely was a bit short on money and gladly agreed. “Finally! I thought you would not say it! I was just pretending. 1 wasn’t really going to pay.”
Anaya patted her on the head. After a few cute exchanges, the two took the necklace and were ready to leave.
“Anaya.” Lexde carne forward with an innocent smile, but her words were rather bitchy. ”Will you come to me and Joshua’s wedding?”
Aracely immediately cursed, “Screw you…”
Anaya seized Aracely and seniled af Lexle. “Sure. Why not? But everyone in Boston knows that you are a homewrecker.
If I appear at your wedding, I wonder who will become the target of public criticism, you or me?”
Lexie clenched her fists secretly. “Anaya, why do you always call me that? Joshua and I love each other. If you didn’t get in the way, we wouldn’t have separated…”
“Come on, if he really likes you, why did he keep your relationship secret?” Anaya’s words hit home. “He did not make your relationship public. It means he likes you, but there are many things more important than you.
“If he could give up on you for the family’s interests a year ago, he can give up on you again.”
“Also.” Anaya actually didn’t want to bring up what happened that night, but she really disliked Lexie’s smugness. “Four days ago, Joshua came to me at night.”
Lexie thought of a possibility, and her face was drained of color.
That was when Joshua agreed to marry.
What happened between Joshua and Anaya?
Lexie said with difficulty, “Why did he come to you?” NôvelDrama.Org content.
“Who knows?” Anaya did not tell her the answer. “Let me give you a word of warning. Joshua loves you, but he can love so many other things at the same time. If you still want his love, then I’ll shut up
and wish you a happy marriage.”
With that, Anaya left with Aracely.
